Study Abroad in Europe

More than 800 undergraduate students are enrolled in the Webster programs across Europe. The Webster student population across Europe includes US citizens, host-country citizens and students from more than 100 countries.

Vienna, Austria

Webster University Vienna is located on the banks of the River Danube with its host of sporting facilities. The campus’s impressive location is reflected in the fact that the Vienna headquarters of the United Nations is located a few blocks from the campus. In fact, Vienna’s second city centre is being built almost on Webster’s doorstep. The stunning old city centre with its many museums, cultural sites and attractions is only 20 minutes by public transport from the university campus.

The Vienna campus student body and faculty are extremely multi-cultural reflecting Vienna’s historic role as a crossroad in Central Europe. Vienna has a rich cultural heritage and a lively arts scene.

Webster Vienna believes very strongly in professional development as a primary objective. More than 25 companies participate in the thriving internship program and a Professional Development Centre, which was established to service the needs of the local business community.

Webster University introduced the first MBA to Austria in 1985 and is the first and only private university to be recognised by the Ministry of Science and Research.

Geneva, Switzerland

Webster University Geneva is located on a two-hectare estate just eight minutes from central Geneva. Two impressive modern buildings house a library, full-service cafeteria and a computer laboratory with Internet and e-mail access, as well as a student lounge. The campus housing co-ordinator can arrange off-campus accommodation for you.

Geneva is a well-known international political and social centre with the United Nations and many corporate representations from around the world. This has created a multi-cultural community that is also shown in the student body at Webster in Geneva. There are over 80 nationalities represented on the campus.

Webster has close contact with the UN High Commission for Refugees and offers the only Migration and Refugees Studies Program at any US University in Europe. Every year, Geneva International Relations students organise a conference on humanitarian and other relevant international issues, attended by speakers from the various international organisations present in Geneva as well as student speakers, members of the press and members of the international community. Recent conferences have featured contributions by Mrs Ogata, UN High Commissioner for Refugees and Mrs Mary Robinson, Head of the Human Rights Committee.

Leiden, The Netherlands

An historic building on a canal in the centre of the old town is home to the Leiden University campus. Leiden is the oldest town in the Netherlands. The University of Leiden, with its vibrant campus life, is nearby and has facilities accessible to Webster students.

The small class sizes and personal environment of the Webster University campus fit well into this close-knit and intellectually rich community. Webster has dormitory rooms that are only a twenty-minute walk from the campus. There is also a campus housing coordinator who arranges rooms for new students.

Leiden is thirty minutes by rail from Amsterdam, and twenty minutes from The Hague, home to many international organisations. The student population at Webster University is comparably international – over 30% speak three languages and more than 20% speak four languages or more
